In addition to taking exercise or aerobic exercise and physical training, there are many opportunities and ways to be active throughout the day. Remember, the more you move, the more calories you burn and it's easy for you to keep your blood glucose level at a normal level or on your target.

More and more research is showing that sitting too long is harmful to our health. Stand once an hour to stretch or walk around your office rather than sit for hours. Take advantage of the time you have to get up and move.

In order to be active throughout the day, there are several ways you can do, such as the following:

At work time:

• Use the stairs and not the elevator.
• Stand 1 time every 1 hour while you are at your desk, and take a quick walk around your office.
• Stand and stretch your body in your work place.
• If you go out for lunch, try to walk to restaurants or eating places.
• If you use public transportation to work, get off at the previous stop and walk on the rest of the way to your office.
• Use a speaker or cellphone so that you can walk around in your office during a conference call
• Try some sports in the chair during the day for a few minutes at your desk.

When at home:

• Take your dog for a walk around the complex.
• Do your own yard work like cutting grass or sweeping leaves.
• Do your own housework like cleaning dust or washing dishes.
• Play with children, for example playing catch a ball or throwing a Frisbee.
• Walk on the spot as long as there are advertisements when watching your favorite television shows.
• Bring items upstairs or from the car twice.
• Walk around the house or go up and down stairs when you talk on the phone.

When traveling or shopping

• Park at the end of the parking lot and walk into the supermarket.
• Walk every time you go to a shop or shop.
• If you are at the airport and waiting for a flight, take a walk around the terminal.
• When on the way, stop every few hours to stretch and walk.
